FAQs
Can I use these for steep hiking?
These shoes are designed for light hiking and walking. They may lack the lateral support and ankle stability required for steep, technical mountaineering.
Are these shoes machine washable?
While some Skechers models are machine washable, it is generally recommended to clean these manually to protect the structural integrity of the slip-in heel construction.
Does the memory foam lose its cushioning over time?
Like all foam insoles, some compression is normal over extended periods, but the high-quality memory foam is designed to provide long-term comfort.
Do I need to tie the laces every time?
No, once you set the laces to your desired fit, the Hands Free Slip-ins technology allows you to slide your foot in and out effortlessly.
Are these waterproof?
The upper is made of breathable mesh, which is not waterproof. They will perform best in dry to mildly damp conditions.
Troubleshooting
Heel feels loose when walking
Adjust the lace-up overlay to increase tension, ensuring your foot is pressed firmly against the Heel Pillow.
Insole feels compressed
Remove the insole if possible and let it air out for 24 hours to allow the memory foam to regain its shape.
Excessive dirt in the mesh
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dried mud from the fabric, then wipe with a lightly moistened cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the best performance, ensure you are wearing the correct UK size for your foot shape. When wearing these for the first time, take a few minutes to adjust the laces to your desired snugness to ensure the Heel Pillow functions correctly. Regarding care, the mesh upper can collect dust and mud. To clean, remove loose debris with a soft brush and use a damp cloth with mild soap for localized stains. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or putting them in a tumble dryer, as heat can degrade the memory foam cushioning and adhesive components.
